Description

JG Percussion JP17 Joseph Pereira Series Suede/Flannel Timpani Mallets offer a unique blend of warmth, articulation, and color. Developed with Joseph Pereira—Principal Timpanist of the Los Angeles Philharmonic—these mallets feature a hybrid design that gives players the ability to shape tone with enhanced flexibility across a wide dynamic range.

Materials and Build Quality

The JP17 features a specially balanced core wrapped in a dual layer of suede and flannel. This combination produces a warm and full-bodied tone with enough surface contact for detailed articulation. The suede softens the initial attack, while the flannel maintains clarity and a dry finish. Each mallet is mounted on strong, responsive bamboo shafts, providing control, natural rebound, and an ergonomic feel. Every pair is handcrafted in the USA by JG Percussion and matched for pitch, weight, and tone.

Performance and Use Case

This model is highly versatile and excels in pieces that require both warmth and definition. It’s a strong choice for orchestral repertoire from the late Romantic era through the 20th century, including works by Mahler, Debussy, and Stravinsky. The suede/flannel combination allows for expressive phrasing, soft rolls, and rhythmic clarity—all in one mallet.
